Figure 8
ECM in aorta. (a) Masson’s trichrome-stained imaged demonstrated that the amount of ECM (blue staining) increased with time in both control and diabetic aortas (magnification = 40x). (b) The increase in ECM fractional area was significant for the diabetic group at 150 days () and the matched control group () ( = 10–12/group for each time point).
